The pictures are ~1kg and the mirror is ~5kg.
Piece of string or similar. 5kg ain't that much!
Yeah but it's got to look good too!
Just wondered what the traditional method was...
What Al says.
Go to a framers and see what cord they have for hanging pictures.
But, yes, chain was often used.
Cheers omitn :o)
Bog chain! 🙂
Moulding hook yes. I use fishing line. It's rated to 32lbs and virtually invisible. Nothings fallen down yet.
Picture hooks and chain was the 'traditional method' - and there's nowt wrong with that!
In me photography studio I use the traditional hooks off the picture rail but with a monofilament (ie plastic) hanging 'wire'

Just a thought...
We've used stuff from www.lionpic.co.uk
Not cheap but very good. Bought some wire and some of the plastic stuff Metal wire with cylinder hooks was best.
